Hello to all you fine people!

Alex from NJ here. I've always wanted a Rolex watch, and last month I pulled the trigger on a DateJust 18k fluted bezel with white pyramid dial.



I admired it and thought it was just beautiful timepiece. In fact, I thought it was too beautiful to wear on a daily basis, that I went and bought the Explorer a few weeks later so I could wear it every day. I'm a happy man!



Look forward to talking to you guys and checking out your Rolex watches. :)
